    Tips

    July 31, 2023

    After scrambling up a series of short, but exposed feeling, ramps and ledges you reach the top of the iconic Horsetooth Rock. You get fantastic panoramic views from this long, exposed rock summit of the surrounding area, with especially great views of Horsetooth Reservoir, which is named after the formation you're standing on. Since the summit is fairly large, even on crowded days you can usually find a spot to eat a snack and take photos away from other people. As you explore, just be aware of steep drop offs, large gaps between rocks, and loose gravel over bare rock.
